In a pathetic attempt to downplay el Trumpo’s loss in Iowa, Trump surrogate Scottie Hughes compared the Iowa caucus to a Twitter poll that Kim Kardashian posted.
Watch below:
Is that really what they want to compare a presidential election to a celebrity poll? Oh wait…
Apparently this is more important to the Trump campaign than people who waited in line and cast a vote in the Iowa caucus:
WAIT new poll. Which album title do you like best? @kanyewest

Earlier in the day, she had also denigrated the process by saying, “Iowa picks corn, New Hampshire picks presidents.” I wonder if they would have said that if Trump had won?
I guess when your campaign depends purely on people believing you’re a “winner,” then you have to sneer at the voter when they don’t fit your celebrity narrative.
But it doesn’t stop there.
When I pointed out her own words to her on Twitter, Scottie freaked out and started berating anyone who understood the plain meaning of her words:
@SooperMexican did not denigrate… History shows that is true NH has better odds at picking the nominee

@SooperMexican I have said that numerous times…

When she made this very silly challenge:
@SooperMexican you want to talk about the rest of the context of that statement or just out to spread hate? Obvious from AM it's the later
— Scottie Nell Hughes (@scottienhughes) February 2, 2016
I very happily agreed to it!!
SURE!! I’d love to hear the context of Trump calling Iowans stupid. Give it to me, @scottienhughes!!

She went silent after that.
I guess she didn’t mean it?
Hours later, she blocked me:
Uhm.. I guess she wasn’t serious about talking about the context of Trump calling Iowans “stupid”? LOL!!
OH BUT THERE’S MORE!!!
Here’s the last time I documented Scottie’s brilliance in the defense of the Donald:
Boom! The "he's smart not dumb!!" rebuttal to @KurtSchlichter. Never even saw it coming. #MakeAmericaNotDumbAgain! pic.twitter.com/5ImAVRpqPw

As I’ve said before, being Trump’s spokesperson must be the easiest job in the world. You can’t say much worse than he ever has.
